JAZMOURIAN ENSEMBLE

Ancient Persian music in a modern, intercultural creative collaboration

We compose and perform original music based on ancient Persian and early western music practices. We respond musically to the beauty of diverse cultures in Australia, as well as the stunning natural environments in which these cultural conversations take place.

Our music reflects the interconnection between eastern and western cultures throughout history. Ancient Persian culture is a unified system which encompasses human connection to the natural world through art. Music in the western world has always drawn symbolically from nature too. We share the sky, mountains, deserts and oceans, and they remind us of the friendship between us.

Our recent concert at the Ainslie Arts Centre, Canberra, was a great success. We are now planning concerts in Sydney, Melbourne and other centres. Stay in touch for details.
